Nation: Year of Torment

The year since the U.S. hostages were seized has brought some painfully
memorable moments. Clockwise from top left: blindfolded American is
paraded in Tehran after capture in November 1979; wrecked U.S. aircraft
are abandoned in the Iranian desert after rescue attempt failed in
April 1980; Iran's President Abolhassan Banisadr speaks beneath the
visage of the Ayatullah Khomeini; Iranian militants burn a dummy of the
Shah; flags fly in Hermitage, Pa., one for each day the hostages are
held; militants bring Carter-in-effigy to his knees in the streets of
Tehran; an Iranian militant stands guard at U.S. embassy.
